Tutti parlano di "middle england". A volte intendono qualcosa di negativo, come una folla inferocita di lettori del daily mail, e a volte intendono qualcosa di positivo, come una pinta di birra in un sonnolento villaggio dei cotswold al crepuscolo estivo. Ma dove e cosa è esattamente la middle england? nemmeno stuart maconie lo sapeva, così ha riempito il suo thermos e i panini ed è partito per scoprirlo.. La middle england riguarda tradizione e decenza o menti chiuse e bigottismo? sono alberi di maggio e vespri, o città mercato allagate e bevitori smodati al parco? e slough è davvero così brutta come ricky gervais e john betjeman la descrivono? da shakespeare a jk rowling, da vaughan williams a craig david, da william morris a b&q, stuart maconie guida la spedizione, con numerose soste per tè e scones, per scoprire la verità.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Everyone talks about 'Middle England'. Sometimes they mean something bad, like a lynch mob of Daily Mail readers, and sometimes they mean something good, like a pint of ale in a sleepy Cotswold village in summer twilight. But just where and what is Middle England? Stuart Maconie didn't know either, so he packed his Thermos and sandwiches and set off to find out. Is Middle England about tradition and decency or closed minds and bigotry? Is it maypoles and evensong, or flooded market towns and binge drinkers in the park? And is Slough really as bad as Ricky Gervais and John Betjeman make out? From Shakespeare to JK Rowling, Vaughan Williams to Craig David, William Morris to B&Q, Stuart Maconie leads the expedition, with plenty of stop-offs for tea and scones, to discover the truth. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Codice articolo GOR001651137
